PRECAUTIONS
PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE PROCEEDING
Please keep this manual in a safe and handy place for future reference.
CAUTION
Always follow the basic precautions listed below to avoid the possibility of physical injury to you or others, or damage
to the instrument or other property. These precautions include, but are not limited to, the following:
• Repairs or part replacement should not be attempted unless
instructions are provided in the manual.
• Do not disassemble the gas spring. Since high-pressure gas is
sealed inside the gas spring, any attempt to disassemble it is
dangerous and creates a high risk of injury.
• Assemble the instrument in the proper sequence by following
the assembly instructions in this manual. Also, make sure to
tighten the screws or bolts regularly. Failure to do so may result
in damage to the instrument or cause the instrument to overturn,
possibly causing injury.
• When assembling or moving the instrument, always use two or
more people. Failure to do so might result in damage to the
instrument or the instrument overturning, possibly causing
injury.
• Do not place the instrument in an unstable position where it
might accidentally fall over.
• Lock both left and right casters except when moving or
transporting the instrument. Failure to do so might result in the
instrument moving or overturning, possibly causing injury.
• When lifting and transporting the instrument, support the side
frames with two or more people.
• The instrument should only be moved across smooth, flat
surfaces when using the casters. On a sloped, unstable or gravel
surface, the instrument may overturn or run out of control, and
possibly cause injury.
• Never run when moving or transporting the instrument using the
casters. Doing so can result in the instrument hitting an obstacle
or wall and causing serious injury.
• Do not go near the instrument during an earthquake. Strong
shaking during an earthquake could cause the instrument to
move or tip over, resulting in damage to the instrument or its
parts, possibly causing injury.
• When the instrument rattles, makes noise or vibrates,
immediately stop using it, and tighten all screws again. Failure to
do so may result in the instrument overturning and could
possibly cause injury.
• Never touch the rotating pulleys. Doing so may result in pinching
your fingers, etc.
• Do not insert your hands or feet in any gaps on the casters or
active parts of the pedal. Doing so may result in them being
pinched and could possibly cause injury.
• Do not play around the instrument. Doing so may cause you to
bump into the instrument, possibly resulting in injury. It also
may cause the instrument to overturn. Do not allow children to
play around the instrument.
• Do not lean, rest your weight or place heavy objects on the
instrument. Doing so may result in the instrument overturning,
damage to the tone bars or frame, or injury to you or others.
• Keep small parts out of the reach of infants. Your children may
accidentally swallow them.

NOTICE
To avoid the possibility of damage to the product, follow
the notices below.
Handling
• Do not strike the tone bars with glockenspiel mallets or
any other solid objects. Doing so may dent or scratch
the tone bars, altering their pitch.
• Do not use the instrument in locations with poor ventila-
tion.
• When moving the instrument, make sure all caster stop-
pers are released. Lift the instrument slightly whenever
moving it over surfaces that are not smooth or flat.
• When moving the instrument, move it gently avoiding
shocks and impacts. The instrument is sensitive to
shocks and may become damaged.
• If the instrument is often moved, screws, parts, etc., may
become loose. After moving the instrument, check and
make sure all screws, parts, etc., are firmly fastened.
Firmly tighten all loose items.
• Do not apply excessive force to lift the frame end as it
may pull the gas spring off from the leg.
• Do not expose the instrument to rain, water, excessive
dust or vibrations, or extreme cold or heat (such as in
direct sunlight, near a heater, or in a car during the day)
to prevent the possibility of instrument disfiguration or
malfunction.
• Do not place vinyl, plastic or rubber objects on the
instrument, since this might discolor the instrument.
Maintenance
• When cleaning the tone bars, wipe with a soft and dry
cloth. Stains that are visible may be wiped off using a
small amount of ethyl alcohol applied to a soft cloth. Do
not use paint thinners, solvents or a wet cloth.
INFORMATION
Casters
Before playing the instrument, make sure the casters and
legs are parallel. As the angle between the leg and the
caster approaches at a right angle, a rattling sound is more
likely to be generated from the caster when playing.

10.
Attach the resonators.
Insert the resonators from underneath the main unit and
rest the high sound side and then the low sound side onto
the resonator holders.
NOTE
• Make sure not to confuse the natural tone side and acci-
dental tone side resonators.
• Take care not to bump the resonators against the legs
etc.
11.
Adjust the instrument height.
Pulling the lever on the left and right leg raises the height,
while firmly pressing down on the side frame while pulling
the lever lowers the height. When you release the lever, the
instrument height is fixed at that height.
NOTE
• The legs have a scale that serves as a guide for adjust-
ing the height.
• We recommend that you lower the height slightly more
than you intend, and then make minor adjustments
while raising it little by little.
• Adjust the left and right height at the same time to main-
tain the level of the tone bars.
• Grease is applied to the cylinders of the legs to allow for
smooth height adjustment. If the grease sticks to your
hands, rinse it off with running water.
• Unbuckle the damper belt when you re-adjust the instru-
ment height.
12.
Adjust the depth of the pedal pressing.
Unbuckle the damper belt, adjust the position of the pedal,
and then fix it by buckling the belt.
